It’s great news for women everywhere, both here in the United States, and especially in the third world. The question now is “should it be mandatory?” Of course ACIP recommended the vaccine, as I predicted they would, so it’s certainly something to consider.

Unlikely. :: OnThePharm Sat, 24 Jun 2006 03:05:39 +0000 http://onthepharm.net/2006/06/cervical-cancer-vaccine-gardasil/#comment-69 [...] There’s a story at TheStreet.com from yesterday about Merck’s new vaccine, Gardasil. It suggests that unless the vaccine gets endorsement from ACIP, it’s not going to be the blockbuster that everyone thinks it will be.
